| 1 | Bulk nanocrystalline W-Ti alloys with exceptional mechanical properties and thermal stability显示文摘Nanocrystalline(NC)W metals and alloys often exhibit higher radiation tolerance and strength than their coarse-grained counterparts.However,their thermal stability is low,making it difficult to achieve bulk NC W metals and alloys by consolidation using conventional techniques such as pressure-less sintering,hot-explosive-compaction sintering,and spark plasma sintering.Here we report the synthesis and mechanical properties of bulk NC W_(100-x)Ti_(x)(x=10 at.%-30 at.%)alloys prepared by consolidating mechanically alloyed NC powders under a high-temperature/high-pressure condition.Adding 20 at.%-30 at.%Ti largely improves the sinterability of NC W-Ti alloy powders.The room-temperature microhardness and compressive yield strength of consolidated bulk NC W_(80)Ti_(20) alloy are∼16.9 and 6.0 GPa,respectively,which are mainly caused by grain boundary strengthening and significantly higher than those of previously reported W and W alloys.The ultimate compressive strength of bulk NC W_(80)Ti_(20) measured between 900 and 1100°C deceases with increasing temperature.This behavior can be explained by the activation of Rachinger grain boundary sliding.No grain growth is observed in bulk NC W_(80)Ti_(20) after compression at 1000°C.Theoretical calculation suggests that it is the segregation of Ti at grain boundaries that decreases the specific grain boundary free energy and makes the NC W_(80)Ti_(20) alloy thermodynamically stable. | H.X.Xue X.C.Cai B.R.Sun X.Shen C.C.Du X.J.Wang T.T.Yang S.W.Xin T.D.Shen | 2022 | Journal of Materials Science & Technology2022，，19： | 0 |
